Math

There was some question on last night's homework dealing with place value. For example, students were given a number, 3,358, and asked what the relationship of the 3s would be. We talked about in class that as the values get larger from 10s to 100s each place is ten times greater. So 3,000 would have been 10 times greater than 300. I hope that clears up a little of the confusion.
